@Matt careful now, you’re headed towards a slippery slope

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago not slippery, maple syrup is sticky

You need some Amish neighbors @goosehd !
Ferocious work ethic and the children will be out there every day raking and grooming the lane

And not dicking around on mobile devices

@steelworker We have quite a few Mennonites around here and they work extremely hard. Best gardens I've ever seen were daily kept by the children with not a weed to be seen. Around St. Jacob Ontario, I watched a barn raising once. Amazing to watch with everyone having a role to play and they worked together better than I could imagine. There were no idle hands to be seen...

@goosehd excellent, easier to catch the lazy sods if they’re stuck

[goosehd]

@tody …be careful as Sakura will need more antifoul applied at some point.

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd I thought that’s why you were invited in August?

[goosehd]

@steelworker …and they would do it without asking or being told to. Deep respect for how hard they work.

I've got an ex-Mennonite on my side. Really nice person, but on her phone regularly, not sooooo hard working and probably terrible in barn raisings.

exactly @Tago-Mago at least she tends to wear cool clothes, like hairline bib

[Tago Mago]

@endo that more than makes up for any other shortcomings

Sorry for the thread drift,but you guys mentioned maple syrup and sticky. Have any of you seen this?

[Mizmazzle]

@pechelman fuck those fools who think by offering a premium promise they can get away with blind acceptance of shit quality. Sadly it shows that most folks don’t know the difference and can be bullied into being delivered garbage.

@Mizmazzle the second he started talking about "heat treating" the strap is the beginning of when i seriously started to doubt this guy and his product.

Let the record show "heat treating" in this case means taking a lighter to the cut end of the elasticized fabric to melt it and prevent fraying.
